HDD is short for hard drive disk, and it is the most commonly used computer storage device. Currently, the common capacity for HDD is 160GB, 250GB, 500GB, 1TB, and 2TB, and they are different in size, like 3.5 inches, 2.5 inches, and 1.8 inches. In addition, according to interface, HDD is divided into multiple categories such as PATA, SATA, and SCSI. However, physical construction and network itself risks make HDD data loss happen frequently. Besides, since both Windows PC and Mac do not have HDD data recovery function, we have to resort to third-party HDD data recovery software when HDD data loss emerges. There is much HDD data recovery software, but most of them is unable to offer us perfect HDD data recovery effects, because they just have a single function. For example, some HDD data recovery software can only recover deleted data and some just can recover data from lost partition. This kind of HDD data recovery software enjoys a relatively small application scope, so they are unable to become excellent HDD data recovery software. Since there are so many reasons for HDD data loss, the software with single function can not meet our demands for data recovery. So, we should select a HDD data recovery software which has all-sided functions.

Data recovery software
Both Windows PC and Mac employ HDD. Although SSD has better performance than HDD, for example, SDD enjoys faster read-write speed, has lower cost performance and smaller capacity, so SDD can not replace HDD in a short time. Therefore, most of the time when selecting data recovery software, we should pay more attention to HDD data recovery. Nowadays, mainly used computers are Windows PC and Mac, but they adopt different operating system although they employ the same storage device HDD, so they have different compatibility. Aiming at different operating system, we should select different data recovery software. Considering this situation, the famous software development company MiniTool Solution Ltd. provides us with the Mac data recovery software MiniTool Mac Data Recovery and Windows PC data recovery software MiniTool Power Data Recovery. Both of them can help us recover lost data from HDD. Besides, as professional data recovery software, they also can recover lost data from memory card, U disk, or other storage devices. As long as we install the data recovery software developed by MiniTool Solution Ltd., data recovery is just a piece of cake.
